Item description
SHERLOCK HOLMES,
BRIDGE DETECTIVE
By George Gooden and Frank Thomas
Los Angeles: Privately Published by Frank Thomas, 1973.
First edition (stated).
Inscribed and SIGNED by Frank Thomas to the verso of the cover.
Rubber-stamped price and a mild abrasion to the upper corner of the title-page, nick to the center of the cover, else near fine in illustrated perfect bound wraps.
"Carefully
conceived and written by one of the nation's outstanding bridge
teachers, Sherlock Holmes, Bridge Detective is designed to bring
entertainment as well as interest and information to those bridge
players anxious to improve their skills at the world's most popular
game. Designed as a bridge escape into the wonderful world of Baker
Street, the reader follows the most famous detective of them all through
his introduction to bridge and then as a participant in the Challenge
Match, the world's first, big, head-to-head, bridge competition. Holmes
invariably relying on his ability at inference, deduction and
observation; rapidly becomes the darling of the kibitzers surpassing the
abilities of his partner and bridge teacher, the long suffering Watson.
Through forty-four action packed hands we follow the line of play or
defense of Holmes-Watson as the Baker Street sleuth uses a common-sense
approach to frustrate his opponents. Interwoven with the Challenge Match
hands are two Holmsian cases which the detective solves with the
assistance of bridge-reasoning. Most of all this novel card adventure is
a fun book designed to instruct the reader in an interesting fashion as
to spotting clues at the table and drawing reasonable clues from them."--Publisher's blurb.
